Hi,
I think I'm loosing it. The permissions seems to be a
rather backwards system. Let me explain.
I want to prevent a User from reading the contents of a
folder, but a file inside the folder can be accessed via a
shortcut.
User U1 is part of Group G1
To understand this, I tried to sent up a folder in which
the Administrator has Full Control.
If the Group "Everyone" has permissions to read the
contents of the folder, User U1 can read the contents.
If "Everyone" is removed but U1 is added with Full Control
it comes up Access Denied. (Whether individually or part
of group "G1")
It is as though if by group membership in "Everyone", U1
can access the folder, but with explicit "Allow"
statements it doesn't work.
The original folder share had permissions set to
allow "Everyone" Full Control.
Does this make sense to anyone else, or has Microsoft
invoked some weird sense of logic? Any suggestions of
where I can find info to help sort this out?
